You've Got Mail

"I love you and have loved you for a long time. That's why I didn't tell you about Marron, because I loved you too much to hurt you. I wanted to tell you when the time was right…"

Pan glanced at Trunks. He was more depressed than ever. But something told her he wouldn't give up that easy. She quickly turned away as he turned his head to look at her. If she saw those eyes she was sure she would go running back. But that would not be right or fair. There was still Sean and college. She needed to finish college.

She looked at her parents and hugged them tight. She hugged Bra, then Goten and so on. When it got to Trunks…she wasn't sure what to do. She held out her hand for him to shake. He took it and shook gently but then pulled her into his arms and hugged her. Pan almost died.

She shakily begged her body to pull away and waved back at everyone and her family. Sighing as she jogged into the terminal, she felt...guilty.

***

"Marron called off the engangement when she realised that I was in love with you. I only realised when you left…please don't go again. Don't leave me. I love you."

Pan shook her head.

No guilt trips. I will not take a guilt trip. I need to finish college anyway. I need to move on. I need…I need…

She lay her head against the seat and closed her eyes. Sleeping should take her mind off things. But it only made things worse…

~~~

"Okay Pan! Open your presents!" Bulma demanded excitedly.

Pan glanced around nervously. They all seemed more anxious and excited than herself. She grabbed the first present that caught her eye. There were so many. She looked at the card. It was from Bulma. She groaned inwardly. Bulma gave great presents…but always made them so personal. Last year was a nice new lacy black bra with matching underwear.

Pan opened the wrapper carefully, she liked to save the wrapping paper. It was a leopard print g-string and a bottle of body chocolate. Pan blushed deeply. Gohan blushed even more.

"Bulma…"

"Bulma…"

Gohan and Pan started at the same time. Bulma frowned and then grinned.

"Just thought I would make your love life more interesting!" Pan blushed even more at that comment.

She placed that gift aside and grabbed the next one. It was from her parents. It was quite big and came in two pieces. One was very soft and the other quite hard in the shape of a book. It probably was. She opened the large soft one first. It was a large bear and it was the cutest thing that she'd ever seen. She hugged it tightly before setting it aside.

"Oh it's so cute!" Pan said excitedly.

Gohan and Videl beamed. Everyone encouraged her to open the second part. Pan opened it carefully and it was a two sided book. It was hard covered and on one side was a picture of a golden archway with a blue sky inside it and white clouds. That side read "Day Dreams". Then she flipped it over and it was the same archway only it was night time and it read "Night Dreams". Pan immediately fell in love with the book.

As she set that aside Goten impatiently handed her his present. Pan laughed.

"Okay! Okay! Okay uncle G!"

Pan opened it carefully to reveal a leather-bound photo album. It was beautiful. Pan ran her hand across the leather in admiration before she the lifted the cover. On the first page was a picture of everyone. This had to be the most recent picture of everyone. The Breif's, the Son's, the Chestnut's and Tien, Piccolo, Yumacha and Chaotzu. She turned to the next page. It was a little older photo. Had to be from last year. On the page next to it was the year before's. As Pan turned the page it had pictures of the Z gang through the years, the last one being the very first. It was beautiful and she loved it!

She placed that aside and looked at her pile of presents. It was now down to three. From the Chestnut's she received a figurine of her grampa Satan.

"I saw it one day and thought it would be so cute if we got it for your birthday!" Marron exclaimed.

Pan laughed. It definetily was something funny to get. Nonetheless she liked it. Especially it's Karate-chop action.

Pan picked up the next one. It was from Bra. Which would mean the next one was from Trunks... She opened Bra's to reveal a hand-crafted photo frame with a picture of the two of them as three-year olds. It was painted in orange and blue. Pan's favourite colours. She looked at Bra.

"It's beautiful!" Pan cried.

"Glad you like it." Bra beamed.

Pan quickly hugged Bra tightly, but Pan's smile soon faded slightly as she reached over nervously to get Trunks' present. It had an actual card and not just a tag, as Pan took it out of the envelope, she sighed. It was manners to read the card first.

Pan.
When you were a baby I thought you were cute.
When you were a toddler you were the most annoying thing that walked the Earth.
When you were a kid you were a witty smartass.
When you were a teen I began to see that you were annoying, a witty smartass and cute all in one.
When we went to space for one year I knew there was something there but didn't want to admit it.
Now you are a young woman and more beautiful then I would have thought you would have ever become. It's impossible to think that I never saw you in this way before. It's impossible to think that I would have denied my feelings for you.
Now I think you are the most beautiful, smart, witty and annoying woman in the world.
Before you leave to California think about how much I love you. I will always love you. Even if you marry someone else I will always love you. I hope you know that.

Happy birthday Pan.

Trunks.

Pan quickly rubbed her eyes before any tears came. She knew she was going back to Cali. She had to. She wanted to. Well…she wasn't sure if she wanted to but she had to. As she slowly opened her present, it revealed a small black velvet box. Inside was a locket with a heart. Pan noticed something engraved on the heart. She brought it closer to her face.

I will love you always

It was simple. But it affected her in a way the others would never know. Carefully, she took it out and placed it around her neck. Everyone was silent.

"Thank you."

~~~

As Pan lurched forward, she automatically brought her hand to her neck. The locket was still there. The plane had hit an air pocket. She took a deep breath before leaning back on her chair. Glancing at her watch, she sighed. Another hour before she reached California.

Don't leave me. I love you.

The words repeated in her head.

I love you.

Pan wildly shook her head. So much for sleeping to get her minds off things. Maybe this was a sign. She was meant to be with Trunks. Again she shook her head.

NO GUILT TRIPS

***

Another day another terminal. More friends to greet just to say goodbye to. What was the point to love? To lose? Where were these thoughts coming from?

She picked up her suitcase exhaustedly and made her way out.

Pan spotted Ren first. How could you not? With superstar looks and charisma! Pan hugged her friend. She hugged everyone else but hesitated when she got to Sean.

"Hey!"

Sean smirked and brought her into a deep kiss. For some reason, now it felt wrong. Like she was cheating on Trunks. But how could she feel that way when she wasn't even with him? This was so not fair. How can Trunks make her feel like this without even…without even doing anything!

Sean grabbed her suitcase and led the way with everyone chatting excitedly behind him. Ren and Pan immediately began talking.

"Pan…what's with the locket?"

"Huh..? Wha? Oh this…umm…" Pan wasn't sure what to say.

She fiddled with it nervously as she tried to think of what to say. Sean's four wheel drive came into view as Ren tried to see what was engraved on it. Ren made a few hopeless leaps for it before they reached the vehicle. Then Pan became cocky and tempted her. Ren being faster than Pan thought grabbed it and read it quickly.

"Oh…Pan! You better not let Sean see that!" She exclaimed worriedly.

Sean appeared behind Pan and looked at the two curiously before tilting his head.

"See what?"

"Uh…nothing…" Pan said quickly.

"Oh! Do you mean this?" Sean reached over and grabbed the locket.

He pulled Pan closer to him so he could read it. He frowned as he read the words engraved on it.

"Who gave you this?!"

AN: POSSESIVE!! GEEZ!!! hmm gots nuttin else to say...bai bai!!
